Thanks Muffin. Glad it's a hit. About the girl with her fan, it's an idea I based on a Ripley's Believe It or Not cartoon I saw as a kid, I've forgotten most of the details, but here's the story (as much of it as I can recall):

A Samurai Warrior, armed only with a fan defeated over *60 warriors armed with swords, axes, etc. (one after another). A detail that wasn't mentioned, and this is speculation on my part, but I think the fan was made of iron, not paper.*(not sure if the number of guys he fought is accurate)
